"Negawatt" is a theoretical unit of power representing an amount of
energy (measured in watts) saved. The energy saved is a direct
result of energy conservation, increased efficiency, or demand
response. Unlocking the "negawatt" rests on our ability to quantify
and improve the performance of the building stock over time.
However, building stock energy models, particularly those
accounting for both physical formulation and social behaviors of
the underlying buildings, are still in their infancy. This book was
written as a Ph.D. dissertation that strives to more thoroughly
examine how buildings perform aggregately in energy usage by
focusing on three major challenges: quantifying building energy
performance in an objective and scalable manner, mapping the
building stock model space to the real-world data space, and
quantifying and evaluating energy intervention behaviors of a
building stock. The proposed methodology can be used by energy
policy makers and utilities to evaluate energy retrofit incentives
and demand-response program economics.
